I would like to hear about somebody that has actually tried this because I don't believe it. I'd like to though.

Sorry, I guess I missed that. So your atty isn't over heating? I don't get it. Why would they tell us to use NR wire if it isn't necessary?
Well, without NR wire...
Using .15 Kanthal (or lower) is a no-go, gets way too hot too quick. Thinner wire heats up quickly, no surprise. Chain vaping can bring about wire taste.
Using ribbon Kanthal (0.3x0.1 is what I used) still makes the atty quite hot but no more burnt taste.
0.25 Kanthal, no so hot. About average even.
You should use NR wire so that all (well, the vast majority) of the resistance is directly on the wick. Less watt-waste which means lower voltages work better than usual.
I've got NR on order but it hasn't arrived yet so needs must...

Oh ok, I thought you were twisting silver wire and then adding silver crimps...
Thank you, i'll stick to the 32awg Kanthal-A1 straight. I didn't even know people used wire thinner than 35awg lol. Would be one hell of a vape though.
More pictures people. I want to see some tanks
Well, since you ask lol. This may seem a bit odd and make me look like a psycho but here it is in a tank. I took this pic for a completely different and specific reason that makes perfect sense there and not so much here but oh well

Got my Killer set up with an AGR tank. I was advised to fill from the bottom, rather than the little screw filling hole in the top. But filling from the bottom is a pit of a pain. Is it really necessary?
Also, the juice control is hard to adjust. Should it be almost closed, or half way? If I open it too much, it doesn't work. But if closed too much I wonder is the juice actually getting in? Not sure it's getting either, as the juice level is staying the same, but still vaping.
Thanks.

If I leave my juice control open this much then it doesn't work anymore i.e. loses connection. Using an AGR tank.
The juice control is pretty touchy and it depends on your pg/vg ratio where to set it. It's trial and error. With my 100% VG I just leave it all the way open with no problems. I had it in my AGR tank first and it wouldn't work right but now I think it's because when I screwed everything back together the juice control got screwed closed. I now have it in a Phiniac tank and I set the juice control where I want it before I snap the caps back on. There's no way to adjust the juice control with my Phiniac tank because the orings are too tight. Hope this helps.
Thanks tmcase. I get it to the opened position but then it doesn't work - no power, no connection. I'd have to close nearly all the way to get the power back, but then I'm not sure if the juice is going in. Might just get a Phiniac. But many members here have their AGR working fine with the killer.
Once you open the juice control, push the connector pin on the 510 adapter in so it makes contact. That should do it.
Cheers adeline. Tried that and think it might have worked. I have the juice control opened now as much as I can actually see the holes. Tried opening it a little more (like the pic above post #652) but lost connection again. Happy now that I can see where the juice is actually going in. Brilliant stuff, thanks a million.
You can check out my Killer at the Vape Meet on the 15th. You gonna be there?
